MOBERLY — According to Moberly High School Band Director Jordan Perry, the Moberly High School Band collected over $600 for their upcoming October trip to south Missouri at their Aug. 30 spaghetti supper prior to the Moberly High School football home opener.

“Despite the late start of the game and extreme temperatures, our supporters came out strong,” Perry said. “Special thanks to Tylene Watkins for donating her time as Kitchen supervisor for the school and Stephanie Riley for preparing the main course. Many more thanks to all those who helped serve or provided desserts.”

Perry said that the moneys raised “will cover most of the cost of two of the band’s meals on the trip.”

The band students will be holding another fundraiser — a frozen food sale — on Tuesday, Sept. 17.

The Moberly High School band will be performing in both the Missouri State University Homecoming Parade and the Silver Dollar City opening ceremonies.
